AUDITION FOR HITS SHOW
(article first published : 2005-05-25)

In July, the Highway Intimate Theatre Society (HITs) will celebrate 45 years of theatre, in Pinetown and the Highway area.

Auditions for their next show will be held on May 30 at 19h30 in the Pinetown Library - snacks will be provided.

The production will include three one-act plays from California Suite by Neil Simon. Each play takes place in the same hotel suite, hence the name. People come and stay at the hotel and each play is obviously a different story with different characters.

The plays are Visitors from Philadelphia, Visitors from London and Visitors from New York. The plays are a "slice of life" and have some very amusing lines.

People of all ages from 25 upwards are invited to read for the parts. If you are interested in learning to help backstage with props or learn about stage management, set building or assisting with lights and sound, go along to the auditions and put your name down to help.

The directors will be Margaret Lauf, Clare Hoogervorst and Carol Ramsden, who will be making her debut as a director. Rehearsals will be in June/July and the performance dates will be from July 28 to August 7.
